Dawes - Just Beneath The Surface lyrics

Have you ever thought

Your little girl glamour shots

And the events of that whole day spent at the mall

Is maybe a part of you

You didn’t know you were clinging to?

As if that’s where the secret had taken it's hold most of all

Like a feather that finds it's invisible path as it falls


Just beneath the surface

There’s another one of me

At the root of all my trouble

In the twitch before I speak

With thoughts and revelations

Even I could not accept

So just beneath the surface

Is where he will stay kept


When you talk about me

Do you stick to the memories?

Or was I just another victim of the case?


The one that went cold on you

The way it was meant to do

For any detective that hasn’t accepted his place

And still wanders the city in hopes of it showing it's face


Just beneath the surface

There’s another one of me

At the root of all my trouble

In the twitch before I speak

With thoughts and revelations

Even I could not accept

So just beneath the surface

Is where he will stay kept


Between the thoughtless words and the wordless thoughts

Between the plotless fears and the fearless plots

Between the parts of me I keep from you and the things that I’m just not

The center keeps on drifting

The music never stops


Just beneath the surface

There’s another one of me

At the root of all my trouble

In the twitch before I speak

With thoughts and revelations

Even I could not accept

So just beneath the surface

Is where he will stay kept
